Hi everyone!

It’s me again)

For those who haven’t heard of it yet - VOID is a local-first, open-source “second brain” app. Think of it as combining the flexibility of Obsidian with the structured organization of Notion.

As the title says - VOID just reached 100 stars on GitHub!

Huge thanks for all your support - it truly motivates me to work even harder and bring the project to release as soon as possible.

But this post isn’t only about “showing off.” Over the past week I’ve mainly been polishing the editor’s behavior, and now I’m finally happy with it. I think it’s time to share the roadmap for the next year(I think?):

  • Note linking, global indexing of todos and tags, and embedded content (videos, images, audio, etc.)

  • Migration from Excalidraw canvas to a custom JSON Canvas implementation

  • Databases (similar to Notion)

  • Sync server improvements and a self-hosted Docker container

  • Plugin API (Lua for the backend and any frontend framework you can imagine)

  • Full redesign of the entire app (yes, we finally have a designer!)

  • And of course… optimization, optimization, optimization

We also now have a Lemmy community where I’ll post small devlogs, thoughts, and some behind-the-scenes updates about VOID. If you’re interested in the project, feel free to join there — or hop into our GitHub Discussions.

And one more thing - the first beta is coming very soon!
Stay tuned!

    Open source Obsidian notes application.

    The second brain part comes (I think) from the zettelkasten method of brain dumping all of your thoughts, notes on things you learn, etc… "On paper” in order to organize it and not lose it.

    It is often recommended (along with to-do lists) for people with ADHD, and good for people like me with bad short-medium term memory.
